As you might imagine, Starfield required hundreds of hours for someone who really wanted to do everything, and Bethesda has said the upcoming game is bigger than anything they’ve done before.
But how long is Starfield if you just focus on the main campaign?Director Todd Howard is acceptingIGNThis was revealed during the interview:
“This game is a bit longer[than our previous games]we might adjust a bit. It’s more missions, so it’s maybe 20% more missions than our previous ones.
Howard clarified at the time that this meansIt’s “maybe the 30s, maybe the 40s”.Howard also stated that they will continue to flesh out the game long after launch, and he has high hopes for the modding community, which tends to do well with Bethesda’s games:
“We’ve learned that people do play our games for a long time. They’re still playing Skyrim—not directly for 10 years, but they leave it and they come back with extra content. Of course, We’ll be doing extra content for this game, we love our modding community. We actually think this game will be a dream for our modding community because they can do so much.
